Labrinth Lights Up Glasgow Ahead Of 2014 MTV EMA!
Labrinth took over George Square in Glasgow last night (November 7) for an epic light show, showcasing his comeback single Let It Be.
MTV News' very own Bluey Robinson was on hand to kick off proceedings as the choreographed light show was projected onto the city's iconic Council Chambers, ahead of the 2014 MTV EMA on Sunday (November 9).
Labrinth Lights Up Glasgow Ahead Of 2014 MTV EMA!
The motion piece - which has been created by production studio Found - will be replayed on Saturday, November 8 from 4pm until 11pm.
Speaking of the project, Labbers told us that he thought it "went down a storm" adding that the whole experience was "really cool".
He also spoke about our host Nicki Minaj, joking: "She's got her Michael Jackson diva thing going on so I'm sure she's going to be a diva for the EMAs."
Check out how the light show was made in our behind the scenes vid here:

Jude and Sax in "All In" from your "Best Lesbian Romances 2010" is a perfect example. I don't care where your sexual identity lies--you can't read that story and not feel the emotion or get swept up in the reunion of two people who so obviously love each other.

I love a good, heartfelt romance. I like to write them, but I really love to read them, so you can count me in as a fan of GLBTQ fiction--and every other kind of fiction--so long as the author offers me that well-written story with strong, appealing characters and a solid, satisfying ending.Kate Douglashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-3473707319947090916.post-45868759167772713362012-01-08T08:46:20.662-05:002012-01-08T08:46:20.662-05:00What Rad said!

I appreciate having such a clear, concise and effective counter-argument to present when people say to me "you read lesfic?! but it's just Harlequin Romance for queers!" - like that's a bad thing. As Rad points out - and I as well at every possible opportunity - well-written stories which celebrate and preserve our story, is always worth my time and my support.Debra email@example.com

Marking the center of an image
We're going to start things off with a fairly elaborate project, in which we're going to build up a layered composition using just two Selection tools; the Geometric Selection tools right here: Rectangular Marquee and Elliptical Marquee, two of Photoshop's simplest tools, but also quite underrated, as you will see. We'll build the composition using three base photographs, including Fire in the sky.jpg, Full moon.jpg, and The wide road.jpg, all found inside the 08_selections folder.
They come to us from Laur, as well as David Woods, in the case of the moon, and LVI, all associated with the Fotolia Image Library, about which you can learn more at fotolia.com/deke. Now I want these image elements, including The wide road.jpg and Full moon.jpg, to be centered against this Fire in the sky background.

Aside from the lovely travelogue of Istanbul, there's nothing really new or different, some of the plot is totally implausible, but it does have an unexpected twist I didn't see coming. So for escapism entertainment, THE NET 2.0 is enjoyable.
There were enough twists and turns in this film to be satisfying, however I found some parts of the film to be a little excessive. A lot of yelling, a lot of banter between Deloach and the psychologist (almost like frenemies at high school). Still, it is worth watching, and I found the ending quite satisfying. For a low-budget film that went straight to DVD, it's really quite a good film.
The film follows an American computer security expert Nikki Cassidy (Nikki Deloach) who finds a new job in Istanbul. She needs a change; needs something different, something very exciting. Nikki flies to Turkey, leaving her reluctant boyfriend behind, and there she is wrongly accused of the murders by the local authority.
`The Net: 2.0" uses so many clichéd narrative and visual techniques taken from other better thrillers including its original: flashbacks, voiceovers, fast-forwards and jump-cuts, mysterious (and unreliable) strangers, stolen IDs and high-tech machines. Director Charles Winkler gives bits of car chase here, hand-to-hand fights there, and some tricks using James Bond-like hand-made gadgets in between.
Still we are not excited at all. But how can we? The film totally forgets to explain certain important things. Why doesn't she just phone someone in the US? Being a computer expert who actually meets clients, Nikki must know someone who can help her. How was the money withdrawn from her bank account? And most of all, as to the mastermind of this conspiracy, why not bribe her (or someone else) instead of preparing intricate setups?
`The Net 2:0" shows several great aerial shots and beautiful landscapes of the city. the detailed shots of the streets and buildings of the city are in fact much better than the main plot and character themselves.
This movie is nothing like the first one. The first one was more grounded and believable. This movie had some kid (she even talked like a teenager) that we are supposed to believe is a tough, sophisticated female. The actresses haircut was a major distraction to me. It was used to make her look older and more mature. It didn't work. It was very non-feminine . . . yeah that is how I will put it. Anyway, the first Net movie really developed the character as a loner . . . . And it helped in developing the plot as to how her identity was stolen. This movie, I think, relied on you having watched the first movie to get that background detail. This movie also was rated R for some reason. I didn't see anything rated R in it. Maybe I have been desensitized by all the American movie garbage. Doubtful but possible. The first movie showed a down to earth girl who just wanted to protect her mom and get her simple life back. This movie . . . well showed a morally questionable ending. There were a few few surprises and it helped me watch the movie through the end. I will give it that. But I did turn it off out of boredom with the tired Middle Eastern setting, Islamic howling music in the background, etc. But in the end it was all too predictable even when the twists and turns started sidewinding. Anyway, it is just OK. Nothing to waste your money on. But I've seen much much worse.

Tymoshenko says she has to read 4,000 pages on gas case every day and night

Yulia Tymoshenko said that she has to read 4,000 pages on gas case every day and night.

Former Ukrainian Premier and Leader of the Batkivschyna Party Yulia Tymoshenko said that setting deadlines for her familiarizing with the materials of the criminal case on gas contracts against her by the court has become a check on justice in Ukraine."The ruling issued by Pechersky Court yesterday is one more check on justice in Ukraine. You know that they set a deadline of until June 16 - they gave me ten days," Tymoshenko told reporters in Kyiv on Wednesday.
According to her, the decision on setting the deadline for familiarizing herself with the case was taken by the same judge of Pechersky Court who also set deadlines for reading the materials of the rest of criminal cases on the misuse of Kyoto funds, and on ambulances.
"This very judge obliged me to read 4,000 pages, including the first and the second cases, by June 16 every day, including at night," Tymoshenko said.
In turn, Tymoshenko's defender MP Serhiy Vlasenko said that the defense had made copies of ten volumes of the criminal case on gas contracts over three days.
"Every day I reported in writing to the investigator on the course of our familiarization with the materials of the case, so we have not ignored the case," he said.
According to Vlasenko, the court ruling was taken secretly, without presence of Tymoshenko's defense.
He described this ruling as "shameful and unlawful."
"It is illogical and does not show any common sense," he added.
"I think this is the beginning, which demonstrates how the authorities are planning to consider the case on gas contracts against Tymoshenko," the defender said.
The ex-premier is charged with the misuse of funds received by Ukraine under the Kyoto Protocol, abuse of office while purchasing Opel Combo vehicles against government guarantees, and abuse of power during the conclusion of gas contracts with Russia in 2009.

Season 10 contestant Haley Reinhart showed up at the stadium for support, as she is from Chicago.
This episode's Twitter hashtags were: #idolauditions, #idolchicago, #idolfashion, #idolbus, #idolhunks and #idolinspire.
47 people made it on to the Hollywood Round
A third new way to audition was mentioned in this episode. It is called the "American Idol Small Town Audition Bus Tour". This is to reach out to the smaller towns to try and find new talent. A total of 10 towns were visited by the mobile audition bus in August: Idaho Falls, Idaho; Billings, Montana; Casper, Wyoming; Rock Rapids, Iowa; Iowa City, Iowa; Bowling Green, Kentucky; Clarksdale, Mississippi; Joplin, Missouri; Dodge City, Kansas and Grand Junction, Colorado. Like with the nomination process, a person who is selected still has to come to the main auditions with the Judges.
The Miserables: This section of the episode was an obvious parody to the musical Les Miserables. A play about a man named Jean Valjean, a French peasant, and his quest for redemption after serving nineteen years in jail for having stolen a loaf of bread for his starving sister's child.

Another Earth Director's Next Film Looks To Emphasize Science And Heart
There are certainly plenty of examples of great works of science fiction that use extraordinary circumstances as a means of exploring human drama. Mike Cahill's Another Earth did that in its own way, telling the story of two people who form an unlikely friendship in a reality where another earth is discovered and within traveling distance. By mainstream standards, Cahill's film is probably more of a drama than it was sci-fi...

Most Helpful
I loved this recipe. I used left over sweet ham I had made for a dinner and we could not get enough of this. No left overs what so ever! It took me a little longer for prep time with cutting up the ham and prepping the bacon and everything but well worth it.
Very much enjoyed this rich pasta dish, really nice for a dinner at home, definitely good enough to serve to guests! Easily prepared with a minimum of fuss, I used cream instead of half and half, but otherwise, as recipe. The flavours combine well, the asparagus gives a nice freshness, really, you can't improve on this recipe. Thank you, AHoff, lovely recipe, made for Bargain Basement tag game.

I'm not experienced enough I guess to do OS dry fire training, just the regular kind. What is "OS" dry fire?
This is a discussion on Dry fire training within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I can't stress enough about the importance OS dry fire training. My friend and I were at the range today and he had some trigger ...
I can't stress enough about the importance OS dry fire training.
My friend and I were at the range today and he had some trigger issues that we worked on. This was his 2nd time shooting pistols. I showed him he should squeeze like he's shaking someone's hand and to only allow the trigger to come forward just enough to reset. The stance issues were easier to show and get figured out. The only issue remaining was the nuances of trigger control.
We got back to the house and I took the 1911 apart to show him the parts. Then I showed him trigger control techniques with the gun mostly apart. Seeing the trigger interact with the fire control mechanisms (sear, beaver tail etc) really opened his eyes.
After reassembly, safety checks and numerous "get your booger hook of the boom switch", he started to really understand what I tried to explain at the range.
I hope he'll get back soon enough to try them out with live ammo!

Dunno if that was just a smart alec remark or not, but to defend a fellow St. Louisan, it is my guess that he mistyped "of".
I can't stress enough about the importance "of" dry fire training.
If I'm wrong, I'm also at a loss for what OS dry firing is. :P
Training with airsoft pistols is also very beneficial. Watch out though, they do hurt when hit by one of those pellets. You can get a decent airsoft pistol for under $100.

HandgunWorld Podcast
When I get home and I'm watching a movie I'll sometimes take my carry pistol and dry fire about 3 dozen times or more until I don't see my front sight shake / move at all. I notice the difference when I go back to the range.
If you wish for peace, prepare for war.
I thought dry fire meant no alcohol on board.

Willing to share on effective programme and team structuring and management, building quality in (including but not just testing), business analysis and product definition, continuous delivery etc. Happy to facilitate discussion sessions.
I prefer discussions but value experts so mainly 2 with some of 1. Fishbowls and 'un-conference' style events would also be of interest.
I'm a freelance consultant and agilist. Most often I work as a troubleshooter on large, complex IT delivery programmes. Prior to setting up on my own I was a principal consultant at ThoughtWorks, my background is in test and delivery management.

Author has written 19 stories for Naruto, .hack/SIGN, and Dragonlance.
News of the month: Welcome one and all to my account! I no longer actively write stories for Naruto or Inuyasha or any of the other works posted here, so this is more of an archive of what I have done in the past.
In other news, there were some fanfics removed by admins which before the end of this year, I am hoping to have up again. More information will be provided at that time. Some of the fanfics remaining here on site, if not finished, one day I do plan on finishing. It may not be the best ending but I do want to end them properly someday.
Thank you for dropping by and I hope you enjoyed a story or two!

When a new highway threatens to bypass the town of Rossmore and cut through Whitethorn Woods, it will also destroy St. Ann's well, where people have been coming for generations to share their dreams and speak their prayers. Some believe the well to be a place of true spiritual power, demanding protection; others think it's a mere magnet for superstitions, easily sacrificed. Maeve Binchy creates a rich spectrum of men and women, all with passionate opinions, who are drawn into this timely conflict between the traditions of the past and the promises of the future.
From the Paperback edition.
In this latest lilting Irish tale from Maeve Binchy, a troubled priest must decide where he stands on the proposed demolition of what some believe to be a sacred shrine. Legend has it that the St. Ann's well has brought love and healing to dozens of visitors, but Fr. Brian Flynn isn't so sure. The town has been offered the chance to build a new highway, which could be beneficial to many. Unfortunately, the highway would run straight into the path of the well. Fr. Flynn goes to the well to make his own request, asking for guidance in making the right decision. When he is presented with the many rich and detailed stories of the well and the many affairs and loves and miracles it has inspired, he begins to understand the importance of the little shrine.

You can try to ignore it, but the pressure to perform at the Winter Olympics will still be there for the New Zealand team in Sochi, according to Julianne Bray.
The two-time Winter Olympian and New Zealand flagbearer at the Vancouver Games will be a keen spectator from her Wanaka base during the new few weeks.
"It's so hard not to feel the pressure. There's a lot of stuff going through your head, which doesn't happen at another competition. That's partly because you know that everyone is watching around the world," Bray, who retired from international snowboarding competition four years ago, said.
Bray finished just inside the top 20 in the halfpipe and just outside the top 20 in the boarder cross, after suffering a fall, in Torino in 2006.
In Vancouver she was again affected by falls and finished 25th in the halfpipe, but had done well to even qualify after suffering a dislocated shoulder a year before the Games.
The actual competition at an Olympics was similar to any of the other myriad events on the international calendar, she said.
"It's not all that different for snowboarding, because you are competing against pretty much the same people at competitions. For the Olympics, the main difference was the commitment in terms of the amount of time you were there and the team spirit and the whole Olympic spirit, which is actually really neat. That's something you don't get at a regular competition. Once you are in the actual halfpipe, it feels quite familiar because of the people you are around. I think the slopestyle girls will feel quite empowered because there's four of them and there's only a field of about 24."
Bray said the preparation before an Olympics was a case of finding the correct balance between pushing yourself and ensuring you were able to pull something special out at the right time, especially something that would impress the judges.
"Building up to the Olympics, everybody is really trying to progress. It's an exciting time to be in such a creative sport and you have to really challenge yourself," she said.
"I can imagine for the athletes, over the last few months; there's a fine line between how much you push yourself and risk injury. A lot of people get a bit confused about that. The New Zealand team have probably been battling in their heads about whether they go for the triple cork or a safety trick and just pull it out at the Olympics."
Making the matter even more difficult was the fact training times could be heavily affected by the weather.
During the buildup to Vancouver, Bray was assigned 10 hours of training time over five days, but bad conditions meant she actually ended up getting less than half of that.
Life's rarely simple for New Zealand's snowsport athletes.
Long days of travelling between venues in Europe cut into training time. The support of friends and contacts overseas can be essential in lieu of financial support.
While the funding model has changed somewhat, thanks to additional funding channelled to New Zealand athletes through the IOC, Bray's career survived on what she earned from sponsors and performance grants based on results at key events.
These days Bray is coaching at Cardrona and is expecting a big crew of Wanaka residents to congregate at a local bar showing coverage of the Games.

Jane Austen
Hampshire was the inspiration for many of Jane Austen's novels.
From her home in Steventon, near Basingstoke, she wrote the first drafts of Northanger Abbey, Sense & Sensibility and Pride & Prejudice, and went shopping in Andover, Alton and Alresford.
She attended dances at The Vyne, near Basingstoke, and finished several of her famous novels at her home in Chawton, which now houses an excellent museum dedicated to the Austens.
Jane's last resting place can be seen in Winchester Cathedral. Next to her grave you will find a permanent illustrated exhibition outlining her life and death in Hampshire.
Many places in Hampshire are associated with Jane Austen's celebrated life and inspired some of the characters and locations in her most famous novels.
Many of these locations have now become the ideal rural escape for visitors to the county.
Anniversary Celebrations
2015 is the 200th anniversary of the publication of Emma, one of the books Jane wrote entirely at Chawton.The Jane Austen's House Museum will be celebrating all year with a range of events and activities.
Jane Austen's Life in Hampshire
The first drafts of Northanger Abbey, Sense & Sensibility and Pride & Prejudice were written from her home in Steventon, near Basingstoke, where she was born in December 1775.
Jane's father was the vicar of the small 12th century Steventon Church and she spent the first 25 years of her life living in Steventon Rectory.
After a brief stay in Southampton, Jane's family moved to the village of Chawton, near Alton, in 1809.
The family home now houses the popular Jane Austen's House and contains some of her personal memorabilia and artefacts.
Here she revised some of her most famous novels at a writing table that can still be seen today.
Jane loved the countryside around Chawton and you can walk in her footsteps in a circular walk from Chawton to Farringdon or visit the nearby market town of Alton, where Jane and her sister Cassandra used to go shopping.
Jane and her family enjoyed days out at local beauty spots, such as the New Forest.
Here they went on boat trips on the Beaulieu River, taking in views of the monastery at Beaulieu Abbey and the shipbuilding village of Buckler's Hard.
The ruins and pretty countryside at Netley Abbey were another favourite, and Jane also travelled to Portsmouth to visit her brothers Francis and Charles, who were stationed there with the Royal Navy.
Jane attended dances at The Vyne, an impressive 16th-century house near Basingstoke, dating back to Henry VIII's reign, and at various times also visited Andover and Winchester.
Jane's last resting place, after an illness which took her life at the age of 41, was in Winchester Cathedral, where she is buried in the north aisle.
The inscription on her tomb makes no mention of her literary talents but a brass tablet and memorial window were added at later dates.
Jane Austen's Legacy
There are many opportunities to discover more about Jane Austen's life in Hampshire and about the legacy she has left for future generations.
At Whitchurch Silk Mill you can find out about the silk used in the costumes for the BBC1 serial of Pride & Prejudice and in the Royal Naval Museum at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard there are more insights into the kind of life led by Jane's brothers in their Navy careers.
Hampshire Record Office in Winchester has outstanding collections relating to the Austen family, such as parish registers, letters and poems.

A newly-approved set-top-box from Comcast Corp. (CMCSA, $36.67, +$0.01, +0.03%) looks to be using designs from Entropic Communications Inc. (ENTR, $5.43, +$0.29, +5.64%), Wunderlich said, calling the device "another big step forward" for the chipmaker. "While it is still too early to tell what the timing and full financial impact could be, we clearly view the win as a positive," the firm added. It backed an $8 price target on the stock, saying shares still looks cheap jumping roughly 25% in the past two weeks.
Sentiment: Hold
wonder if 'mstevens' has anything enlightening to say about wunderich.
and by "enlightening" I mean idiotic when it pertains to him.
He was pumping it when it was $12 just ;like you doper.
Sentiment: Sell
It's going to go there and a LOT higher than that IMHO. Still, 8.00 would be just fine by me. Read this:
"Entropic Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:ENTR): After the firm reviewed FCC tests of Comcast's (NASDAQ:CMCSA) IPTV set-top-box, the XI3-H, DA Davidson claims that Entropic possessed various important design wins for the device. The firm is convinced that Entropic's design wins at Comcast and Time Warner Cable (NYSE:TWC) should show improvement to its financial results in the near term, and it keeps its Buy rating on the stock."
Sentiment: Strong Buy
The more design wins and financial success leads to other companies looking at entr as buyout candidate. If entr can resume solid growth, they are a serious buyout candidate. The closer we get to 8 bucks, the more likely this becomes.
2 new insider buys filed also points to MUCH higher stock price in the future. This could be an easy double within 2 quarters.

Watch as Jetman Yves Rossy and his protege, Jetman Vince Reffet, take their crazy jetpacks to the skies of Dubai and tour the city like Superman would. It's unbelievable every time I see them soar through the air like fighter jets, busting moves and tricks that only stunt planes dare to try. Except they're not in a…
Justin Capra, a Romanian inventor who claimed to have invented the first functional jetpack, died on Monday at the age of 81.

Our favorite flying human Yves 'Jetman' Rossy is up to his old tricks again of making us all feel like tiny little life wasters. This time, he took a majestic flying tour around Mt.

Eric Scott aka Rocketman is probably the best Jet Pack pilot the world has. He's flown over canyons, performed in airshows and holds the record for fastest speed on a Jet Pack. So with that gift, he's now teaching people how to fly in his Jet Pack school.
Things were looking so good for John! He was at the beautiful San Diego Yacht Club—on TV! He had a million dollar smile. He had an awesome aqua-jetpack. Then he smashed the anchor and careened into the water.[via , ]
Well! Here's something that will make you feel like a tremendous coward. Not only is flight enthusiast "Jetman" Yves Rossy unafraid to strap on a giant winged jetpack, he flew across the Grand Canyon with it. Very, very quickly.
The worst part about skiing? The agonizing wait to get from the bottom of the hill to the top. Which is why I'm so glad we're finally introducing jetpacks to the slopes!

50-year-old Swiss adventurer Yves Rossy (known aliases: Fusionman and Jetman), was forced to abort his first attempt at a jetpack flight from Africa to Europe with a dive into the Mediterranean Sea. I guess the nicknames didn't come with superpowers.
An eBay auction (ending in 10-hours) offers the chance to be part of the Jetpack's first public test pilot program. You'll need to have a driver's license, be over 18, under 198lbs...oh, and have a spare $35,000 lying around.

"Don't cover your ears, this is what you paid to see!" Glenn Martin shouts to me over the apocalyptic roar of an F22 fighter jet performing a leisurely flyby. He'd abruptly broken off a conversation with someone else just to make this point-before we'd even been introduced and hours before I flew his pack. "That's…
I flip the ignition switch and 250 pounds of engines, turbines and gasoline roar hello. In terms of horsepower, I was carrying a small sports car on my back. I'd like to say that I grin confidently and give the cameras a wink, like some young Chuck Yeager or Evel Knievel, but the smile leaves my face.
We don't ask for much here at Gizmodo, but what we really, really want is a jetpack that costs $200. Sure, we have brought you the deal with jetpacks before, but we want something that lasts longer than two minutes, (so do our girlfriends). Also, we would not mind a Jetsons-type transportation mode that costs less…
